Diseases In Aspen: Ecology And Management In The Western United States, Thomas E. Hinds
Diseases In Aspen: Ecology And Management In The Western United States, Thomas E. Hinds
Aspen Bibliography
Although many diseases attack aspen, relatively few kill or seriously injure living trees. The common leaf diseases, in general, are widely distributed throughout the range of aspen, whereas there are subtle differences in distribution between the important decay fungi, and apparently entirely different areas of distribution of major canker-causing organisms. However, there still are large gaps in knowledge of the disease organisms and their influence on natural and regenerated stands.
Wildlife In Aspen: Ecology And Management In The Western United States, Norbert V. Debyle
Wildlife In Aspen: Ecology And Management In The Western United States, Norbert V. Debyle
Aspen Bibliography
Aspen forests provide important habitat for many species of wildlife (Gullion 1977b), especially in the West (see the appendix to this chapter). In the coniferous forests of the interior West, aspen groves may be the only source of abundant forage; in the grasslands they may be the sole source of cover. A primary value of the aspen ecosystem in the West during the past century has been production of forage for both wildlife and domestic livestock (see the FORAGE chapter).

Aspen Bibliography
Aspen has not been cut extensively in the West; in fact, it has been grossly underutilized. For example, as recently as 1975, the aspen harvest from National Forests in four Forest Service regions in the Rocky Mountain area was 7.64 million board feet.1 Additional minor volumes were cut on special-use permits for products such as fuel and corral poles. The total amount cut represented only 0.1% of the net volume available in these aspen forests.

Genetics And Variation In Aspen: Ecology And Management In The Western United States, J.R. Jones, N.V. Debyle
Genetics And Variation In Aspen: Ecology And Management In The Western United States, J.R. Jones, N.V. Debyle
Aspen Bibliography
The broad genotypic variability in quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.), that results in equally broad phenotypic variability among clones is important to the ecology and management of this species. This chapter considers principles of aspen genetics and variation. variation in aspen over its range, and local variation among clones. For a more detailed review of the genetics of qualung aspen, especially with wider geographic application and with emphasis on tree breeding, see Einspahr and Winton (1976).

Aspen Bibliography
In the past, markets for quaking aspen timber from the Rocky Mountains have been insufficient to support significant harvesting. This shortage of markets severely restrained the potential for aspen management. As a result, many stands protected from wildfire gradually reverted to conifers (see the VEGETATIVE REGENERATION and FIRE chapters).

The rotation, in forestry, is the planned number of years between formation of a crop or stand and its final harvest at a specified stage of maturity (Ford-Robertson 1971).

Esthetics And Landscaping In Aspen: Ecology And Management In The Western United States, Craig W. Johnson, Thomas C. Brown, Michael L. Timmons
Aspen Bibliography
Aspen is valued for its scenic beauty. One indication of this is the trips to the "high country" that many forest visitors make to view the autumn color changes (fig. 1). Another is the frequency with which aspen is planted in urban and suburban areas. Subjective generalizations about the esthetic uses of aspen, although reasonable, provide only rough guidance for management of scenic quality. They can not be used to compare the relative beauty of different scenes, or to determine how much scenic beauty changes as the physical characteristics of the scene change, either naturally or as the result of …

Vegetation Associations In Aspen: Ecology And Management In The Western United States, Walter F. Mueggler
Aspen Bibliography
Aspen trees grow along moist stream bottoms as well as on dry ridges and southerly exposures, on talus slopes, and on shallow to deep soils of varied origins. Quaking aspen is one of the few plant species that can grow in all mountain vegetational zones from the alpine to the basal plain (Daubenmire 1943). As a consequence, aspen dominated communities are found intermixed with such divergent vegetation as semiarid shrublands and wet sprucefir forests

Progeny Testing Of Native Aspens And Their Hybrids For Biomass Production In Michigan, G.L. Reighard, J.W. Hanover
Progeny Testing Of Native Aspens And Their Hybrids For Biomass Production In Michigan, G.L. Reighard, J.W. Hanover
Aspen Bibliography
Anaspen progeny test consisting of 206 families of trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides), bigtooth apsen (P. grandidentata), and their hybrids (P. Xsmithii and P. Xrouleauiana) was planted on five Michigan sites and evaluated after two growing seasons. Growth performance of trembling aspen families when compared with all aspen taxa was above average and increased with the latitude of the plantation site. Backcrosses of trembling aspen males to white poplar-bigtooth aspen (P. Xrouleauiana) females produced the fastest growing families at all Lower Peninsula plantations. Most hybrid aspen (P. Xsmithii) families had growth rates below the planation …
